If you are in immediate danger call 9-1-1.

This list of hotlines from around the world will help you find assistance whether you are in a domestic abuse situation, have been raped, are a victim of incest or hate crime, or sexually assaulted, or need to protect a child. I wish I could list international hotlines with the U.S. numbers, but there are so many that providing you with another site to visit is more efficient.
